Perhaps inspired by the idea of the Double Wedding Ring Quilting challenge, and definitely inspired by another blogger who's been making a beautiful first-ever Double Wedding Ring quilt ... I've been thinking that if I could make a block, I could probably try making an actual quilt with some batik fabric I just bought ...
So, for starters, I traced templates onto gingham ...
... did some sewing ...
... and some seam-ripping ...
... and got things almost flat, after lots of pressing ...
I'm making this up as I go along, but the plan is to have white sashing between however many gingham blocks I end up making ... So far, the block total is up to 8!
Looks great - I love gingham - first sewing project I ever made in school was a gingham apron! Your sampler quilt is looking beautiful. Love the colours.
